this_o doctrine_n by_o unquestionable_a strength_n of_o reason_n and_o by_o plain_a and_o undeniable_a testimony_n of_o scripture_n be_v in_o effect_n to_o do_v by_o the_o religion_n of_o rome_n as_o

not_o that_o we_o be_v to_o expect_v that_o faction_n or_o prejudice_n or_o interest_n will_v ever_o be_v dispute_v out_o of_o a_o opinion_n this_o perhaps_o will_v never_o whole_o be_v bring_v to_o pass_v so_o long_o as_o there_o be_v either_o diverse_a man_n or_o diversity_n of_o opinion_n and_o interest_n in_o the_o world_n but_o i_o say_v if_o man_n will_v act_v according_a to_o the_o true_a dictate_v of_o natural_a conscience_n and_o reason_n then_o if_o it_o be_v acknowledge_v on_o both_o hand_n that_o the_o scripture_n be_v infallible_a and_o divine_o inspire_v and_o if_o it_o be_v equal_o clear_a that_o the_o truth_n of_o the_o scripture_n can_v possible_o consist_v with_o that_o of_o the_o doctrine_n of_o transubstantiation_n then_o if_o man_n will_v not_o give_v themselves_o over_o to_o all_o manner_n of_o imposture_n and_o delusion_n without_o measure_n and_o without_o end_n they_o must_v of_o necessity_n disclaim_v that_o doctrine_n as_o a_o error_n which_o be_v so_o far_o from_o be_v defend_v that_o it_o be_v manifest_o and_o strong_o oppose_v by_o the_o confess_o infallible_a authority_n of_o scripture_n and_o because_o both_o part_n of_o a_o contradiction_n can_v possible_o be_v infallible_o true_a but_o the_o one_o must_v of_o necessity_n be_v infallible_o true_a the_o other_o infallible_o false_a there_o be_v nothing_o more_o plain_a than_o that_o if_o they_o acknowledge_v the_o truth_n of_o the_o scripture_n they_o must_v at_o the_o same_o time_n unavoidable_o renounce_v the_o pretend_a infallibility_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n and_o consequent_o the_o church_n its_o self_n the_o certainty_n of_o who_o faith_n and_o doctrine_n be_v build_v upon_o this_o rot_a and_o sandy_a foundation_n and_o which_o by_o consequence_n may_v under_o this_o false_a though_o specious_a pretence_n lead_v we_o into_o innumerable_a error_n and_o mistake_n and_o that_o in_o matter_n as_o well_o of_o practice_n as_o belief_n for_o when_o thing_n come_v to_o be_v thorough_o examine_v it_o will_v be_v difficult_a to_o set_v bound_n to_o this_o infallible_a spirit_n so_o as_o to_o draw_v a_o line_n where_o infallibility_n border_n upon_o the_o
